among some of the most prominent fruit
merchants of this city, regarding the
prospective fruit crops, resulted in OBJ
tanning the following information: The
apricot and peach crops, will be large;
white cherries will be exceedingly light;
plums and prunes will not be more than
one quarter of last years crop. CThere
has been an advance in raw prunes and
plums of 100 per cent in the last fort

bid fair to be large, while the grape
crop will be fully one-third short.

CONDITION OF FRUIT.
Fruits of all kinds promise well. The
following are reports received from
some of the counties where the outlook
is poor: San Bernardino crops were in
jured, owing to the scarcity of rain in
January and February. Stanislaus, rain
came too late to benefit more than so
Nper cent of the crop. San Joaquin crops
are poor, owing to the lack of rain in
March and at the beginning of April.
An examination shows the heads of the
grain to be under the average length.

PITTsBURG, May 20.-A serious phase
in the coke strike at Everson, de-
veloped this morning, when a mob of
three hundred negroes and Hungarian n
miners, armed with bludgeons, suddenly
appeared in the coke yards at the Jim
town works of Colonel Shoemaker, and
without warning made savage
attack on the men engaged in drawing
out ceke from the ovens there. Such
laborers as could not escape were cruelty
beaten, one man being so badly kicked
that his life is despaired of. Having de.
stloyed all the movable property the
rioters then marched to the works of
James Cochran & Sons, and destroyed
the property there The total destruc-
tion of property will probably amount
to over $50, 900.
